Get well!

Hello
Hope you had a great day!  I am feeling a little tired tonight!  I am glad we are nearing the end of the week!  Jacob and I had a great day at home today.  He is slowly getting better at his reading so we were working on that this morning.  What a privilege to be able to teach a child to read....something we probably take advantage of far to often!

Today's card is for my aunt.  She has been really sick for a while now and I think a card might cheer her up.  I decided to use the Fab Friday sketch as a starting point.  I combined that with the Dynamic Duos Colour challenge this week.   This week's colours are Primrose Petals and then a colour of your choice...I picked Summer Starfruit.

I realize now looking at this that my flag is a little too wide.  I guess it's a little too late to change that now!  I love the Tea for Two stamp set from Papertrey Ink.  Who doesn't love a good tea pot stamp!  I used the coordinating die as well!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Primrose Petals
DSP: Tea for Two (Papertrey Ink)
Stamps: Tea for Two
Ink: Basic Black
Other: Honeycomb Embossing Folder,  Tea for Two Die (Papertrey Ink), Basic Pearls, Sanding Block, Distressing Tool, Dimesionals

Thanks for stopping by!
Have a great day!

Jen!

Tea Mug Card

 Happy Monday!  It was back into routine for us today!  I was kind of glad!  My husband worked last Thursday and Friday which set us up a little but today was a good dose of reality!  Now back to SK for my oldest tomorrow!  I must say I am a little excited!

I had a request for a birthday card and the person the card is for is a bit of a tea snob.  I can say this mainly because I'm married to him!  Shhh...don't tell him this card is for him!  I had found an online tutorial for making this adorable cup...Lorri did an awesome job at explaining how to make this cute cup which she used as a gift card holder.  The lid pulls off to reveal an insert to which you can attach a gift card or write a message.

I created this cup to match the travel tea mug I bought my lovely husband for Christmas.  I am really excited about how it turned out and think I'll be making up a few extras of these to have on hand!   They are super fun to create and once I got the hang of it (I must say I messed up the first cup!!).

Supplies:
Cardstock: Early Espresso, Old Olive, Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla
Stamps: Tea for Two (non-SU).
Other: Ribbon, Paper Crimper

Hope you enjoyed today's card!
Have a great day!!!
